Johnny Fedavo Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][Em][A]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Down in the little
Mexican town [A]of [D]Nuevo
There lived a maiden lovely as [Em]a rose[A]
[G]Deep was the love of Lisa,
the rose of Nue[D]vo
For [A]Johnny Fedavo and
he loved [D]her too
[G]They made a vow that they'd
always love each [D]other
For them, on [A]other could be so true
[D]

[Verse 2]
[G]Storm clouds swept in the
life of Johnny Fedavo
The promise of Heav[D]en [G]las
ted for just a [Am]day[D]
God needed [Am]someone to
[D]brighten his throne
Lisa was [A]taken and [D]Johnny
was left all alone
[G][A][D]

[Verse 3]
That day in the little Mexican
[A]town of [D]Nuevo
Sadly, a village laid their rose [Em]away[A]
[G]Johnny came home but no Lisa
was there [Em]to m[D]eet him
No arms to [A]greet him or hold [D]him tight
[G]Johnny prayed alone for God to [D]hear it
To take his [A]spirit away that night
[D]

[Verse 4]
[G]The years passed by [D]and [G]no one saw
[D]Johnny [G]Fedavo
The children grew and people
were gay once [Am]more[D]
One day they found him
with hair snowy white
The rose in his hand [A]was his [D]message
to Lisa that [G]night
[A][D]

[Verse 5]
[D]Down in the little Mexican town of Nuevo
Two lovers at last their peace
with God have [Em]found[A]
[G]Deep was the love of Lisa,
the rose of [D]Nuevo
For [A]Johnny Fedavo and
he loved [D]her too
[G]There in [D]the chapel [G]shadows
they [A]both [Em]lay [D]sleeping
Their vows still [A]keeping and both still true
[D]
